About this episode

The episode explores the mysterious disappearance of two-year-old Corey James Edkin in 1989 and the subsequent unsolved crimes involving his family.

In 1989, something truly baffling happened in the quiet town of New Columbia, Pennsylvania. A two-year-old seemed to vanish from his home in the middle of the night. The family would also find themselves in the spotlight over the years from some other crimes, some of which have remained unsolved. The fact remains, however, that two-year-olds generally don't disappear on their own, at least without being found eventually. So what happened to Corey James Edkin?
